Just as Qin Feng put away the Wood Spirit Art, a familiar voice came from the cabin door, “Young Hero Qin, are you inside?”

Qin Feng recognized the man’s voice. He was a cultivator who had recently exchanged his first Essence Pill. However, Qin Feng did not expect that this person would be found again.

Opening the cabin door, it was indeed the cultivator standing outside the door. “What do you need me for?”

“Young Hero Qin, my name is Zhong Kui. I am a rogue cultivator. I wonder if I can come in and talk about it.” The man looked around with great vigilance. After confirming that there was no one nearby, he said,

Zhong Kui was only at the second level of the Saint King realm. Qin Feng was not afraid that this fellow would cause trouble, so he invited him into the room.

‘”Young Hero Qin, please don’t blame me for taking the liberty of visiting. I am very grateful that I can get a Essence Pill from you, and I can tell that Young Hero Qin is very interested in Blood Moon Stone. There is something I need to tell Young Hero Qin.”

Qin Feng was stunned, “Oh? Brother Zhong, if there’s anything, just tell me.”

Zhong Kui took a deep breath and seemed to be organizing his speech. A moment later, he said, “Young Hero Qin, I accidentally obtained that Blood Moon Stone three years ago in an ancient martial ruin on the outskirts of Northern Sand City. At that time, I only entered the outer circle of that ancient martial ruin. There are formations protecting the interior of the ruin. I can’t break through with my cultivation base.”

‘”Since the Blood Moon Stone has appeared outside the ruins, then there must be a Blood Moon Stone in the cave, or even a better treasure. This is the map of the Ancient Martial Ruins. I also found these two jade tokens outside the ruins. Now, give them all to Young Hero Qin. You can go take a look when you have time.”

As Zhong Kui spoke, he took out a cowhide map and two jade tokens. The jade token was the size of a palm, and its shape was very strange. Even the materials were not ordinary jade, so it was unknown what kind of materials it was made of.

Qin Feng touched the groove pattern on the jade token. He could feel traces of an ancient aura coming from the jade token. From the looks of it, the ancient martial ruins in Northern Sand City were obviously some years old.

“Brother Zhong, why don’t you keep these things for yourself? You must know that the ancient martial ruins are very difficult to find. They are treasures that cultivators compete for.” Qin Feng asked doubtfully.

Zhong Kui smiled bitterly. “Young Hero Qin, “I would also like to obtain that ancient martial ruin, but you can see that I am only a mere Saint King 2-dan cultivator, and my aptitude is very ordinary. I am grateful to heaven for being able to reach the realm of Buddha Light Transformation in my life … If I have the strength to search for that ancient martial ruin, I’m afraid that it would have been discovered by someone else long ago, then I might as well give it to Young Hero Qin.”

Even though Qin Feng had only displayed the strength of a Saint King after boarding the flying ship. However, Zhong Kui could tell that this was not Qin Feng’s true realm. May I ask which Saint King realm cultivator can casually take out Essence Pill? Furthermore, when Zhang Zhengjian of the Six Saint Kings pointed at Qin Feng at the exchange meeting, Zhong Kui did not see any fear in Qin Feng’s eyes. There was even a hint of playfulness in his eyes …

Qin Feng did not know that Zhong Kui had observed him so carefully. He did not pretend anymore. He put away the map and the two jade tokens and took out two jade bottles from his body and handed them to Zhong Kui.

“Young Hero Qin, who is this?” Zhong Kui was at a loss.

Qin Feng smiled and said, “You’ll know when you open it one by one.”

Zhong Kui opened the two jade bottles and was stunned by the medicinal pills inside.

“This, this is the Golden Soul Pill and the Golden Soul Pill … This, how did this work?”

Zhong Kui was stunned!

The Golden Soul Pill was the best pill for breaking through to the third realm in the second realm of the Saint King, while the Golden Soul Pill was an auxiliary pill from the third realm to the fourth realm. When he saw Qin Feng take out the Essence Pill, he had expected Qin Feng to be very rich, but he did not expect him to be so rich.

Facing these pills, Qin Feng did not seem to care at all.

“Brother Zhong, please accept it. Actually, I’m an alchemist. These pills are useless to me. Why don’t I give them to you? I believe that I can help you break through to the Four Saint Kings realm quickly.”

Zhong Kui felt like he was dreaming. With his talent, he didn’t know that it would take him more than ten years to step into the Four Realms of Saint Kings. However, with these two bottles of pills, he was confident that he would be able to step into the Four Realms of the Saint King within a year.

“Young Hero Qin, then I won’t stand on ceremony. These pills are indeed of great help to me.” Zhong Kui accepted the jade bottle and thanked him several times.

At this moment, Xue Junfei walked out of seclusion. Zhong Kui greeted him and left. He was only at the second level of the Saint King realm, yet he had exchanged for a Essence Pill, and now countless pairs of eyes were staring at him. He planned to stay in seclusion in his room while the flying ship was traveling.

Xue Junfei casually asked Zhong Kui why he had come. Qin Feng mentioned the ancient martial ruins. Xue Junfei did not ask any further about the location of the ruins. This made Qin Feng very satisfied.

“Brother Qin, there’s an Alchemist Exchange Conference tonight. Shall we go take a look?” Xue Junfei suddenly regained his spirits.

“Oh? Aren’t all alchemists allowed to participate in the Alchemist Exchange? Are you also an alchemist?” Qin Feng was a little surprised.

Xue Junfei scratched his head awkwardly and said, “Brother Qin, what a joke. I wish I were an alchemist. The alchemist exchange tonight is different from the Saint King exchange. There is no restriction on the identity of cultivators to visit. However, only alchemists can enter the main venue. Ordinary cultivators like us can listen to them talk about pills from the periphery.”

As is known to all!

Alchemists in Empyrean Mainland were extremely scarce, and pills were one of the necessary cultivation resources for cultivators. Therefore, on the journey to the Fallen God Sea to explore treasures every year, the exchange of mages would attract a large number of cultivators to watch.

Originally, Qin Feng did not want to participate in the pill refiner exchange, mainly because he was afraid that some people would recognize him. However, seeing Xue Junfei’s expectant expression, Qin Feng did not want to disappoint him. Moreover, Qin Feng also had plans. He did not go to the main venue as a pill refiner. He just surrounded Xue Junfei outside the venue and listened. This way, he should not be recognized by the people of the Four Great Pill Workshops.

The two of them had already rushed to the scene of the Pill Gathering. Before they could get close, they could see that the deck in front of them was filled with people, and there were hundreds of people in the dark.

Everyone was gathered around the high platform, and in the middle of the crowd, there was an open space. There were quite a few disciples from various sects sitting around the arena. The disciples from the four major pill factions sat in the main seats, while the rest of the disciples from the pill refining sects and clans lined up one by one.

“The genius disciples of the Four Great Pill Workshops have gathered. This scene is truly rare!”

“I admire Square Building the most. He’s only forty years old and has already become a fifth-grade sixth-grade Xu Baizhen. Most importantly, he’s affectionate and doesn’t have any airs. I’ve even looked for him to refine pills.”

“Speaking of Square Building, the person with the highest talent for pill refining is Xu Ru’er. This woman is in her early thirties and is already a seventh grade and sixth grade Golden Core Master. She is simply Beisha Continent’s number one pill refining genius.”
